Sunset from Angkor - Cambodia

Special feature Cambodia : Sunset from Angkor

If you don't do anything else in Angkor, you must see the sun set from the heights of the Phnom Bakheng temple (a part of the Angkor complex). There is a rough stone path for the bravest travellers-beware as it is often slippery. The others can ride up on elephat back. No need to look further than outside the temples, under the trees; the elephants are equipped with specially-placed platforms for sitting on during the ride. It takes half an hour to get up to the top and although a little shaky, it will always remain an unforgetable experience.
